How to apply for Australian citizenship

The laws around Australian citizenship are governed by the Australian Citizenship Act 2007 (Cth), Australian Citizenship Regulations 2016 (Cth) and the Department of Home Affair’s Citizenship Policy.

There is also a lot of misinformation floating around online, on TV and in the news. Many people are misinformed about the requirements for Australian citizenship, such as whether an English test is required… or if you have to be able to play cricket!

Come in and speak with one of our consultants or case managers about Australian citizenship and we’ll do what we can to help.
